- Strong family and community involvement;
- Staff development;
- Integration of character education into school climate and the academic curriculum, including the use of instructional technology to improve academic skills;
- Dissemination of project results and products; and
- Ongoing and final assessment of program effectiveness.
The Indiana Department of Education assists the schools with pilot programs, oversees the dissemination and assessment components, and maintains a clearinghouse for character education.
